The design of the 1More True Wireless ANC is podlike, not unlike Sony’s WF1000XM3. The earbuds have black carbon fibre prints on the outside and they come in an oblong charging case that is just about small enough to fit into most pockets. It also isn’t as compact as Apple’s AirPods Pro, but considerably less chubby than the WF-1000XM3’s. The case can be charged using a USB-C cable or wirelessly with a Qi wireless charger.
1More goes to great lengths to ensure owners can get a good fit. Included with the earbuds are no less than six pairs of silicone ear tips and three pairs of silicone O-hooks. The O-hooks are supposed to fit into your concha but I could never get them to fit right. Even without them, I found the 1More True Wireless ANC to fit well enough.
There are controls on each earbud – a single button and touch controls on the side – and they can be confusing at first because you have to remember which earbud controls what function and how many presses activates what, but you’ll get the hang of it after a couple of days.
Speaking of, the touch controls allow you to cycle through the various noise cancellations modes. The first mode toggles full-on ANC which 1More says is suitable for flying and can cancel external noise by up to 35dB. The second mode is less aggressive and can cancel external noise up to 20dB. The third mode is pass-through, which lets you hear your surroundings.
